The ' 7Mskey Insurrectioii, at Chicago. 1
To'over'-awe the Court, nnd force a de
cision in their favor, the rum and lager
dealers resolved on a demonstration, and
on Saturday forenoon a procession of for
eigners of the lowest class, armed with blud
geons, and headed with 'drums and fifes,
mart-hod to the front of the building, whero
the Court was in scsseion, and began hoop
ing, yelling; beating their drums, and de
nouncing he license law. They complote.
ly blocked up tho sidewalks and crossings,
and exhibited very riotous conduct. The
Marshal of tho city soon appeared, and or
dered them to clear tho - 6trect and side
walks, and disperse. .-. He , was met by a
positivb refusal.' A few policemen tnming
to his assistance, lie again ordered the streets
cleared," and proceeded' to arrest some of
the ringleaders, who were bidding him de
fiauec, and barangneing the mob to etand
their ground, " This was the signal for a
melee. ' Tho Marshal arid several of his
aids woro, in tho first rush: knocked down
and sovcrely beaten. A lurefo number of
citizens came to their assistance, and "pitch
ed in,", some with their canes, others with
their fists. A posse of day watchmen, con
stables and deputy sheriffs arrived very op-
..l.. it' i ' v i
puiiuumj', uuu me ugui occame general.
Tho Leader's correspondent says he had a
beautiful bird's eye view of the whole bat
tle, at a distance only fifty yards. ' Men
could be, seen fiercely struggling by the
score; The heavy blows on the head, by
clubs) could . bo distinctly heard. ,.; Men
fell every moment. In some places Wo
or threo of the rowdies could bo seen. boat
ing 6nO policeman, in other, parts of the
crowd, as it swayed backwards and forwards
it stalwart "star" would be kfiocking down
the .rummies right and left, having half a
dozen about uis feet at once. "
Aftor a sharp strugglo of five or ten min
utes the Law and Order men gained the
battle. - The ringleaders of the rioters
were rapidly seized and rushed into jail,
which stood close by the battle fiild. The
diums were captured and their hcadsstoved
in; the drummers were thrown iuto prison;
and the brunt of the buttle was over. A
largo number of vanquished beat a retreut
into a drinking saloon near by. In there
the Marshal and his posse rlshed and sei
zed half a dozen of the rioters; a short fight
ensued; bloody heads and bruised faces
emerged and were marched across the square
into prison. V
During this fight tweufy-five or thirty
persons were injured some severely, one
reported fatally. Twenty arrests were made
Daring tho afternoon the report spread
that tho free whisky boys wero organizing
and arming for another demonstration.
And 6ure enough, about 4:30 1 M. a large
procession, chiefly Germans, came pouring
down Randolph street, from the "North
Side,": and baited in front of the Court
House, on tho former battle ground. Some
fifty of them were armed with muskets,
the remainder with , pistols, knives and
clubs.' , ' '. - , ' , 1 ,;
, . In the mcauVbilc, the Marshal hod sworn
in twenty special policemen, and was pretty
well prepared to give tho whisky boys a
warm reception. As soon as they blocked
up the sidewalks, he ordered his police to
clear them, and the second fight immediate
ly begun, , ,Vc huppeued to occupy our old
position-and could see all that was going
on. below. . ..: ; ', . . ;
" Bludgeons swung in tho air, and descen
ded on men's heads. The .crowd fought,
roared and' swayed to and fro," on a much
larger scale thuu at the first fight, Every
few seconds the sharp crack of a musket
loaded with buck shot, could be heard, and
in nniustant after the person firing it would
bo knocked down by the police and drag
ged into jail.' " Several of tho shots, took
effect, and policemen wero wounded.; -Ve
saw onoof the ''stars shot, in the side while
engaged in a hand-to-hand fight with a large
rioter. Tho miscreant that shot him drop
ped his weupop and fled. A citizen pursu
ed him) and 'after,' a sharp race came close
up' and poured tho contents of his revolver
into tho coward's back,' who fell, and was
then dragged off to jail. Tho musketeers
were soon beaten, captured, or dispersed,
while the rcuiuiudcV of the, rioters' scattered
hi all directions- Four of thu police were
WQuudcd by fire artfis, two of them severe
ly perhaps mortally. One had his riht
arm shattered, and sinco amputed." A cit

pleasure. Had this affair happened to
have come off oh tho day of an election,
it would have been proclaimed from the At
lantic to tho Pacific by a thousand hunker
trumpets that it was all a matter of perse
cution against the poor, quiet and un
offending foreigner. Theso Chicago Dutch
are of the same original Stuck of those
"quiet and law-abiding" citizens of the
12th Ward in Cincinnati, and have been
educated in the same school. And these
are the men who for years have herd the
balance of power in this republic, and to
whom political aspirants Whigs and
Democrats must bow and scrape, treat
and take a horn with, in order, to obtain
their suffrage. Thank God that the day
has gone by, we hope never to rotjuru,
when men who reso'rt to such measures
can succeed in gulling the community.

Distinguished Deaths.
Our Mouthly llecord of Deaths of distin
guished persons, which we commenced with
the present year, wo find to be an interest
ing topic for memoranda, from current
journals, of the events of mortality. We
now have to record the following : . '
Hon. Wm. Jackson, sometime since a
member of Congress from Massachusetts,
and for eight years past,- President of the
American Missionary Association, died,
Feb. 27th aged 71 years. He was a man
of deep piety, and whun in Congress, al
ways met with a small band for devotional
exercises. He was an early champion in
the cause of Temperance, and waa ever
known as the decided friend of the. Slave,
enduring obloquy sometimes, upon this ac
count. The Missionary Association of
which ho was tho first President, was or
ganized upon tho Anti-Slavery principle.
When near dying, ho said to his daughter,
"Give my love to the officers of the Amer
ican Missionary Association. Tell them
they are on tho right track." Again he
said to a friend, with deep feeling.
"I wont to say to you, for your encour
agement, that when you come to be ad near
the grave as I seem to bo, it will be one of
the sweetest consolations to you to reflect
on all you have done for the poor and op
pressed. That ia my experience at this
moment. Nothing you have done will af
ford you more consolation. It matters lit
tle how much wo are opposed and slander
ed if we have tho conciousncss that we arc
acting right. It is well to have the good
opinion of our fellow-men, but it must not
be gaiucd atthe expense of principle, or by
refraining from doing our duty. If a rail
lion of people are against us, it matters
not, so long as we are canscious of acting
right. Even thoso. who opposo -us will
secretly honor and respect us."
Abncr McGeheo, of the vicinity of Mont
gomery, Ala., an aged and leading mem
ber of the M. P. Church, died Feb. 19.
He was possessed of vast'wealth, and was
uoted and esteemed for his piety, benevo
leuce and liberality. He fouuded a Bible
House, of the American Bible Society, at
Montgomery, at u cost of 15,000. He
has also wo believe founded a College of
the M. P, Church, at a 8(311 larger cost,
which is intended shall bear his name.
Dr. Lipsoomb 6ays in tho Methodist Prot.
estant, that besides all he did in his life
time, th bequests of his will to Benevolent
institutions cannot fall much short of $100,.
000. But we fear that somo of ' the best
traits in the character of this venerable
man will not bo recorded by tho southern
press. We aro iuformed by some who knew
hiiu, that being thu owner of a largo num
ber of Slaves, ho providod well for their
comfort, in food,' clothing, dwelling houses
and kiud treatment, which is not done by
all ' in this relation.' He also had them
taught to road and write, which we four is
hot generally douo by other slave holders.
A circumstance was related to us, that when
disked by a friond if the instructing of blacks
was not prohibited by law of the State, the
old gentleman replied, be hud understood
tliere was such a law, but he had not seen
ity nud did uot want to see it. Were the
press in the South permitted to circulate
facte and arguments touching the duty and
the safety of emancipation, we apprchen d
that' old Br, MoGehee of Alabama would
have ecn his way to concur aud oo-opcrato
with the above named Mr. Jackson, of Mas
sachusetts. V Wo deem it 'most likolylhat

The Issue Before Us.
An article appeared iu tho "Columbian'
of this city two or threo weeks ago, on
the past and present position of tho 'Inde
pendent Democracy ,' which we laid on oue
side intending to take somo notice of it.
Time and the occasion have slipped awny,
and we allude to tha subject now for the
purpose of bringing forward one remark
contained in tho article and giving it that
promineuce which it deserves, in connex
ion with the position of parties and tho
politics of the State and the country. In
the article wc allude to, the following dec
laration was mado.
'There is, however, one point of agree
ment between us and the Know-Nothing
at least the Know-Nothings of Ohio; op
position to" the Shivery extension Policy
of tho Present Administration.'
Tliere is truth arid soundness in this re
mark which just uow'hus significance.
If tho Anti-Slavery seutimeut aroused by
the repeal of tho Missouri Compromise is
n and way to bo sunk or dodged iu the
coming canvass in any of the Western States,
the basis upon . which rests the People's
inovcinctuent of 185jl is gone. In the
New-England States there can be no doubt
of the popular sen tinieut on this question.
Ana it tliere wero anywhere any hone,
North or South, that opposition to the pol
itical power of Slavery might give way to
otner issues, mat Uope may Ieabenclonel.
The result of tho late State elections show
this. The conduct of the late election in
Kansas would mako it criminal to rest for
one moment from our labors. The strug
gls is betwocn Slavery and Freedom. There
There is.no dodging the issue. 0. S. Jour
nal. On tho 26th iust., by llcv. Petty, Thom
as J. Markle, Esq., of Vintersvillo, O.,
to Miss Esther A. daughter of Mr. Wil
liam Roberts, Sr., near tho forks of the
road, Jefferson Co., Ohio.
On Sunday evening the 8th ult., Mr.
John M'Leish and Miss Mary W. 11a

Peace and prosperity attend them.
